I think I know the last one- those would be albizzia julbrissan. They grow like mad in North Carolina and are considered an invasive species. Intentional cultivation here is illegal due to the invasiveness, but they are really pretty and the blooms remind me of truffala trees.

The first one also looks like a plant that grows wild all over here, but I forget the name. They have them labeled at the local Botanical Garden, which specializes in local native species, so if nobody else has an answer beforehand I'll check it out next time I'm there.

Cool thanks I got a handful of seeds from the first one, because it looked unusual and the leaves are giant.

The common name for them is "mimosa silk tree," and even just "mimosa, " so its possible someone could sell them to you without even realizing you're talking about different plants. It could have been intentional,  but it could be some unknowing retired grandmother gardener, too.  :P

I was thinking Tina Turner circa 1985, but you younger guys probably don't remember that.  ;D :P

Sweet that's what I was guessing because I've always had north american strains and they have white trumpet flowers with moar slender leaves.
